What is Drop Shipping?
Drop shipping is when a distributor ships your single item orders directly to your customers.This allows the selling of a product for example a piece of sterling silver jewelry without having to first purchase and stock the jewelry in inventory. Once you receive an order and received payment from the customer you will place the order on line or sometimes call the drop ship supplier with the customer’s order information. In turn they will ship the jewelry directly to your customer and charge you the wholesale price for the silver jewelry. You pocket the difference between retail and wholesale cost of the jewelry.
The Benefits of Drop Shipping
There are many benefits to drop shipping jewelry. First is a great way to allow you to spend time marketing and promoting sales of the items you are selling. It eliminates having to carry the silver jewelry items in inventory and having the expense of packing and shipping the order. There is also no minimum order requirements and best of all you receive the profits paying only the wholesale cost.
